Chet Baker - WNPM Returns!

Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting returns with an episode about superstar trumpeter Chet Baker.  Baker rose to fame in the 1950's as the prince of cool jazz, and recorded some truly beautiful music.  The episode covers his early recordings with Gerry Mulligan's quartet, his early recordings as a bandleader, and some from later in his career, post-comeback.  Enjoy!

I'm a lover of jazz music and have spend the last 20 years digging through record crates at the record stores, yard sales, swap meets, etc, in the Los Angeles area, and want to share some of the great jazz I've discovered along the way.
